The Good Neighbor
A thriller score in the tradition of Bernard Herrmann’s strings, set against twisted, experimental electronics. Low strings, analogue synths and a theme that slowly turns on itself.
“We wanted to have music that is more based on how music was used in older films, like in a Hitchcock movie where music had its very own right of living.”
“He basically started completely from scratch with his musical approach, which is very unusual nowadays because very often you use temp tracks to just give a feel. Enis didn’t do that.”
“The idea in the musical concept was to mix natural and artificial sounds. The more the characters and the story unfold, we lose sight of what’s real and what’s imagined. The natural sounds become more unreal and the electronic sounds become more tangible.”
“And to have this very strong string theme that we have multiple times in the movie, he came up with that, and it’s something I’m really happy about.”
